THE HEARING

2.3 Preliminary Objections

2.3.1 Objection to the Tribunal's Jurisdiction

It is by bringing an application at the commencement of the hearing that a party may object to the material jurisdiction of the tribunal within the meaning of s. A. 114 Section 114 of the Act. It is possible that on its face the case does not involve a decision of the Commission or that the appellant is not a claimant or an employer or any other person who is the subject of such a decision. If the parties realize that the board does not have the necessary quorum or that the membership is incorrect, this is also the point at which this objection should be raised.
